An antral lesion

11/2/2021

This lesion was found in the antrum. The histology is also attached. 
WHAT IS THE LIKELY DIAGNOSIS?
■ Hyperplastic polyp
Would be red with white caps!
■ Adenomatous polyp
Yes and histology confirms HGD only
■ Superficial gastric cancer
Could be but histology is benign...
explanation
Most EGC's look a little like basal cell carcinomas with an elevated rim surrounding a central depression. This is a good example of what an EGC could look like. As it happens though, it only harbours HGD. Because you can't really tell endoscopically (the pathologists struggled as well to make a distinction sometimes) 

There are more than one type of 'gastric adenoma': 
  1. Intestinal-type adenoma
  2. Foveolar-type adenoma
  3. Pyloric gland adenoma

This was reported as an intestinal type adenoma harbouring HGD !
